The Sa Wasteland

[Ryanrb25]

haha, that's great.

When I worked at Adelaide Engine we used to sell second hand Scania & Volvo pistions for $20 as they made great ashtrays (ie. the combustion chamber is built into the top of the piston).

SLED, spoke to a good friend of mine tonight who is a tech at toyota, There is a recall on the 200. The vaccumm pump accumulator valve opens far too much causing the motor to burn excessive oil...This can be fixed with a simple flash of the ecm. Toyota do it on warrentee, Also if you get a spungy brake pedal it's because the Diaphram in the master cylinder has a slit in it rather than a hole..hard to explain over the net. But Minor things and will be fixed for free.

So many lines up for grabs these days! Infact, even I'm barely keeping hold of the GTR. Still up in the air about if I'll sell it, or keep it...

If my $ improves, then I'll keep it for another year!

haha im in the exact same sittuation, gotta figure out what i wanna do before the years insurance is up. very very tempted to go down the chaser route

[CRoNic...]

Haha same!! As much as I love the GTR... Chasers seem all the rage these days!!

^ i know you guys are confused now so im going to pretend you didnt just say that

godzilla can not be replaced by some sort of "chaser" possible meaning to the name lagging behind

[Damo_R34]

gtr

[Madaz]

Volk for me also

i dont think much of the gtr rims, sure against most aussie factory alloys there awesome but against aftermarket jap rims there only average

[rad100]

fark rims are so hard to choose from!

[Damo_R34]

but seriously mang, your money, your choice, no point the whole of SAU telling u to get volks, and you wishing for the rest of your rim ownership that u got gtr's... maybe you can get gtr and spend 600 on brakes? id go gtr and rotor upgrade over the 37's.

[Madaz]

Yeah maybe

gtr with new brakes and colour change the rims

[rad100]

yeh fair call damo... i had my eyes set on gtr, so its the way i will go..

if i dont like them meh the 37s are still here lol..

[Damo_R34]

[rad100]
